A peptide probe for targeted brown adipose tissue imaging
A peptide probe for targeted brown adipose tissue imaging is a scholarly work by Eva M. Sevick-Muraca, Ali Azhdarinia, Sukhen Ghosh, and Pradip Ghosh, published in 2013 in ''Nature Communications''. The main subjects of the publication include white adipose tissue, biology, brown adipose tissue, adipose tissue, endocrinology, peptide, internal medicine, and omega-3 fatty acid. The authors show that in addition to brown adipose tissue, this peptide probe also recognizes the vasculature of brown adipose tissue-like depots of subcutaneous white adipose tissue.
